This is a valuable early model of the Berluti Toujours Scritto Leather Tote Bag, a classic. The Toujours, the best-selling bag in Japan, is a versatile tote bag embodying the maison's desire to be "forever." While the Toujours is a masterpiece used by many, this early model offers an outstanding presence, setting it apart from others. The Berluti's classic cacao brown patina is the iconic color that everyone associates with Berluti. As a standard color, it harmonizes well with various items, such as wallets and card cases, making it easy to match. This model is from before the leather supplier changed and before the current method of finishing the patina with less dye. Therefore, it has beautiful color gradations, and the quality and potential of the raw leather are evident, resulting in a very deep color. Those familiar with leather will be surprised at the high quality of leather used for this tote bag upon touching it. Also, while current products have inner pockets made of cotton fabric, this model features inner pockets made of Venezia leather with the same color patina. Retail price: ¥545,600 This is a genuine product, so free and paid maintenance, including polishing, is available at Berluti stores nationwide in Japan. The condition shows some signs of use, which is unavoidable due to the nature of the leather after about two years of use, but it is a beautiful item overall with no significant damage or stains. The leather is glossy and maintains its firmness, as it has been regularly maintained. There are no folds or creases in the handles, and the edges are not damaged. There is no noticeable damage to the bottom or the four corners, and the inner pockets are clean. Approximate size: Height 31 cm, Top width 46 cm, Thickness 13 cm As the Toujours is the most popular bag in Japan, it can be used universally from business to dates and shopping. I recommend this item from a good era. Recently, I have seen several people selling used Berluti items that have been dyed with non-genuine dyes without explanation. Please be aware that this not only damages the color and texture of the Venezia leather, which are the greatest charms of Berluti, but also prevents you from receiving genuine maintenance. The items I sell have not been dyed at all and have their original colors and leather textures, and you can receive genuine maintenance without any problems. Please rest assured.
